Affordable & Delicious Italian Restaurant in Chicago π
This place is basically my second dining room β I eat here once or twice almost every week! π₯ Vegetable Salad β A must-order every time! Tossed with vinegar, cheese, olive oil, and black pepper β tangy, refreshing, and super tasty π. π² Italian Beef Stew β Tasty and hearty with potatoes, celery, carrots, etc. The meat isnβt super tender (as a Cantonese person, I prefer melt-in-your-mouth braised beef), but the flavor is still great! π Eggplant Pasta with Tomato Sauce β A whole slice of eggplant paired with pasta β absolutely delicious combo! π Cheese Pizza β Also a winner! π Ordering style: The menu is written on the wall β you order and pay at the counter, then wait at your table for the food. They also have daily specials written on the wall, so check those out too! π All pasta is handmade, the kitchen is huge, and the pizza is made fresh daily. β° Hours: 10 AM β 8 PM daily. This is a long-standing, family-run spot with honest, home-style Italian food.
